When your music is distributed by DistroKid, and streamed through a service it's delivered to, DistroKid Distribution pays you royalties for the sound recording. These are the royalties owed to performers and labels for the recorded version of your song.
If you wrote the song, you're also owed composition royalties whenever it's streamed. These royalties belong to the songwriter and publisher, and can only be collected by publishers, publishing administrators, and songwriters.
